(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
My family had a few pet chickens when I was a kid, but I got my own in the Spring of 2019! Best decision ever!
(2) How many chickens do you have right now?
5, 3 on the way from Cackle!
(3) What breeds do you have?
EE, Leghorn, ISA Brown, Buff Orpington & Black Sex Link. The 3 chicks being shipped today are Splash Ameraucanas!
(4) What are your favorite aspects of raising backyard chickens?
They have the funniest little personalities, and are constant entertainment.
(5) What are some of your other hobbies?
Gardening, soap making, painting/sculpture.
(6) Tell us about your family, your other pets, your occupation, or anything else you'd like to share.
I am newly married. Between the two of us, we have our chickens, 3 dogs and 2 conures. I'm a preschool teacher and go to school for Art Education (aiming to teach HS ceramics!)
(7) Bonus: How did you find BYC, how long have you known about BYC, and what made you finally join our awesome community?
I stumbled across BYC when I first got chicks last year and they had pasty butt. The forums are so helpful and I'm so grateful for this resource. Everyone is welcoming and there is a wealth of knowledge here!
